A little bit small to get your luggage sorted but we managed it bc we got a 3 bed room instead of double room :) ##### Tessa Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa 31 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We liked how it was close to stores and restaurants, however it was too small for us. But it served its purpose. ##### Lisa Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Steven 22 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The location of the hotel is good - very close to the Nijojo Castle and close to subway and bus. The check-in was a little frustrating because none of the staff spoke English. There is a smoking room just beside the check-in desk, so the first thing you smell when you walk into the building is smoke. The place is bare-bones - rooms are small but adequate, no ice machine or ability to get ice at the hotel, no vending machines or food. The worst problem was the internet - when it worked, it was extremely slow. Half of the time it didn't work at all. The staff did their best to try to fix it, but it never worked well. Unfortunately, I can't really recommend this hotel. ##### Steven Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### han 31 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Without warning on the extra charge on the last day of stay, it charged extra for just 20min extra stay than the expected check-out time. First time I ever saw during so many years of hotel experience in countries. It feels like this hotel is hungry for charging customers money. ##### han Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### CHISATO 26 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness 挨拶してくれて気持ちが良かったです。 ##### CHISATO Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna 23 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Busstation nära som tar dig in till stan, nära till 7 eleven! ##### Anna Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### まや 9 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 会うたびに笑顔で声をかけてもらえて気持ちよかったです ##### まや Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Mayako 27 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 二条城が近く、朝気持ち良くジョギング出来ました。料金が高いと感じたため、評価を４としました。 ##### Mayako Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Nicholas 20 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities La chambre était relativement grande ##### Nicholas Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### ハルヨ 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 部屋はきれいだったので快適でした。キーレスなのが良かったです。 ##### ハルヨ Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### srta 25 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A pesar de que es pequeña en habitaciones a lo que uno esta acostumbrada es muy acogedora, comoda e incluso me gusto qje la cabecera tiene la conexion de luz para teléfono y demas Lo recomiendo mucho ##### srta Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### AKINOBU 4 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service チェックイン時の対応がよくなかった ##### AKINOBU Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gilberto 4 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excelente ubicación para llegar a las zonas turisticas, esperamos poder regresar ##### Gilberto Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### 弘子 1 Jun 2025 とても清潔でよかった また 利用したい ##### 弘子 Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### HARADA 27 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 低価格です 快適に過ごして、観光ができました ありがとうございます ##### HARADA Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### よしひろ 26 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities その節はありがとうございました。とても優しいスタッフの方です。 ##### よしひろ Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Tugio 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities スタッフの対応もよかった！ ##### Tugio Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### MIKA 10 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ありがとうございました。 ##### MIKA Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### かずこ 20 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities 冷凍庫または製氷機があれば嬉しい ##### かずこ Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### 寿 8 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 提携駐車場などあるとありがたかった。 ##### 寿 Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ka wing 12 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 地點算方便！近巴士站 ##### Ka wing Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 房間舒適,放到兩個行李箱 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 15 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Moderne und gut funktionierende Unterkunft.
